Chapter Thirty-Seven: Becoming His Man

"The concubine doesn't understand, and I ask the little master to make it clear."

Huan Yi sneered and sat up, "You don't want to mention what you want, you just want to be the woman who wants to be the young master." ”

"The concubine has no such intention." She was stunned for a moment.

"Don't think that Young Master Ben doesn't know, you came to the Protector's Mansion and did not hesitate to stand in front of the mansion for a day and a night, which shows that you are infatuated with Young Master Ben." His face was full of disgust, "Young Master Ben will fulfill you today, but after the matter is completed, you have to tell me about the green kite." ”

The last few words he said were so heavy that they almost squeezed out between his teeth.

This made Jiang Mo a little stunned for a while, looking at his righteous appearance, it was like a persecuted Qinglou girl, thinking that he was so arrogant, he actually did such a thing, and couldn't help laughing.

"That's not what I want." Her voice was faint, and her onyx-like eyes looked straight at him.

"And what do you want?" Huan Yi's patience seems to have been exhausted.

"I just need the young master to promise me three things."

"Okay." Huan Yi agreed without thinking, "You say." ”

"The first thing is to achieve fame in the imperial examination three months later." She looked at him, "Will you promise?" ”

The triennial imperial examination was originally scheduled to be held last autumn, but because of the border rebellion and the emperor's disregard for political affairs, the ministers discussed postponing it for half a year and holding it after spring.

Huan Yi didn't expect her to make such a ridiculous request, there was a faint anger between her eyebrows, but she only got up from the bed, picked up the robe that fell on the ground, and put it on randomly.

Her gaze involuntarily fell on the jade plaque on his chest, and her gaze was a little complicated.

It seemed to be back on his birthday, she put the jade plate on his neck with a smile on her face, he took it off with disgust, and said in a childish voice, "What a broken thing, it's about to strangle Young Master Ben." ”

The knot woven on the jade plaque was also from her hand, and it had been worn for seven years, and it was a little old.

At this time, Huan Yi had already put on his clothes, and while walking out, he said in a cold voice: "Remember your words, if you deceive me, I will definitely want you to live rather than die." ”

When Huan left, she didn't even close the door, and the cold wind mixed with the dampness made her teeth chatter.

And at this moment, I saw Xuan'er running in with crimson cheeks, and when she saw the quilt thrown on the ground, her dark eyes almost didn't know where to put it.

"Why did the little master leave so quickly?" As she spoke, she turned and closed the door, and the room was a little better.

"When did you go out?" She had nothing to say for a while, only asked casually.

Hearing this, Xuan'er became even more cramped, wrapped her fingers around her sleeves, and said vaguely, "When the little young master pushed the door in, the slave woke up, and went out for fear of getting in the way." ”

Jiang Mo was slightly stunned, seeing her like this, it was a little more funny.

"There's a small room next to it, why don't you move there tomorrow?"

***********

When Huan Yi returned to his house, he saw Fanyin, who was on vigil, standing at the door, and more than a dozen little girls in the courtyard were tossed by her, carrying lanterns in her hands, looking like they were looking for someone in the house.

Seeing that he was back, Fanyin breathed a heavy sigh of relief, and came over with the octagonal palace lamp, "Little young master, where have you been, you haven't even worn a fox fur cloak, how can you freeze out and get sick?" ”

Huan Yi glanced at her impatiently, "Go and bring me the books on the table in the study." ”

These words made everyone startled, and they all looked at it quietly with strange eyes, only thinking that he had hit an evil spirit, and those books had fallen into the dust, and they hadn't touched it for a few years, so why did they suddenly remember.

It turned out that since seven years ago, Huan Yi made a big fuss in the mansion, and even rushed to his second uncle's house with a knife, and was beaten by his father after stabbing to death the maid who came up to stop him.

If it weren't for the original Duchess of the Protector who desperately stopped her, I was afraid that she would be beaten to death that day.

I only heard that he almost died that day, and the board was full of blood, if it wasn't for the imperial doctor in the palace invited by the Lord Protector, his little life would not have been saved.

He lay down for half a year, only stuffy in the room by himself, dropping things when he saw them, and tearing books when he saw them.

Later, after the wound healed, the study was burned, and all kinds of ancient books and solitary books were destroyed.

Seeing that Fanyin looked like a ghost, Huan Yi only turned around and walked towards the study by himself.

His reading made everyone very happy, thinking that if the master knew, he would definitely reward them with the maids who followed.

However, it wasn't until the old man went to the court that they went to the protector, and sure enough, the protector was very happy to hear it, and hurriedly ordered people to bring the four books and five classics, and ordered people to pass the word, saying that they should not be tired.

When Sanskrit Yin passed the words to Huan Yi, his eyes kept falling on the book, and he didn't lift it.

However, she soon realized that something was wrong, and Huan Yi didn't even need breakfast, but only ate a few pastries on the table that were suitable for the occasion.

It's the same at noon, and I'm too lazy to eat anything for dinner.

Everyone panicked at this time, and at this time, the protector who was dealing with state affairs in the Hanlin Academy had already returned, so he had to go and reply.

The protector didn't even take off his court clothes and hurried over, but he saw Huan Yi looking at the book with a pair of eyes, and he blinked for a while, and he had no idea for a while.

When he talked to Huan Yi, he didn't seem to hear it, and he was like a ghost, and he changed his personality overnight.

The Protector hurriedly ordered people to get all the maids in Huan Yan's house into the courtyard, and began to interrogate where Huan Yi went last night and who he saw.

Fanyin was so frightened that she was covered with cold sweat, and only cried, "Yesterday, when the slave and maid heard the movement, when I went to check in the house, the little young master was no longer there, and I came back after only two sticks of incense, but I didn't know who the slave and maid were." ”

At this time, the rough old woman in the courtyard was busy and said: "The master doesn't know, a clean person like our young master, when he goes out at night, he will inevitably provoke some evil, maybe it is a narrow ghost." ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone only felt a chill behind their backs, and goosebumps all over their bodies rose.

The Protector of the Kingdom did not believe in the crooked theory of ghosts, but seeing that Huan Yi was like this again, he had to order someone to invite the most famous mage in Beijing to enter the mansion and open an altar in the courtyard.

This trouble was made in the middle of the night, and I saw an altar in front of the study, and the chickens and ducks that had just been slaughtered were stacked like a hill, but I saw several wizards with black faces, half a basin of water in their hands, and a branch dipped in water, and threw it around.

After a while in the yard, he babbled something before entering the study.

Several people jumped and jumped around Huan Yi, holding branches and gesturing in the air. One of them, wearing a ghost mask, poured a sip of wine into his mouth, and was about to spray it on Huan Yi's body.

But he saw Huan Yi raise his head, and there was anger in his dark eyes, "You dare? ”

The man was so frightened that he choked on a mouthful of wine in his throat, and he didn't dare to cough when his face was red, and he almost lost half his life.

Huan Yi took the book in his hand and walked out of the door, but saw the protector of the country and the justice hurriedly turning around the courtyard, and several maids were also like frightened birds, trembling.

Everyone was relieved to see him come out of the house normally.

Sanskrit even folded his hands and muttered, "Amitabha, it's finally good." ”

Huan Yi just calmly saluted the protector, and then said very indifferently, "Grandfather doesn't have to worry, grandchildren just want to study, it's only right to drive those noisy people out quickly." ”

The protector of the country was overjoyed, "Although it is to study, but you also have to rest and eat, and you are not in a hurry, why be so diligent, how can it be good to hurt your body?" ”

Huan Yi didn't seem to care about his words, "After the spring is the imperial examination, and the grandson will definitely take the examination for fame, so he will retire, and in the future, the grandson will only close the door and only concentrate on studying in the house." ”

Seeing him say this, the Lord Protector was very relieved, but also worried, but saw that he returned to the study, and after driving out a few wizards, he buried his head in the sea of books.

The Lord Protector only ordered someone to send the wizards away, and then turned to the kneeling maids and said angrily, "Something must have happened to him last night, you don't even know who he saw, so it can be seen that your service is not considerate." ”

When one of the little maids on the night watch heard this, she suddenly remembered something, so she hurriedly said: "The slave seems to have seen the little young master coming back from the backyard yesterday, maybe it was the one who saw the backyard, that ......"
